Chapter 14

Irene Pov

10 doublets laid in front of me in a row in different colors and designs. I had made Gildarts wear all of them but none really caught his attention. "You know Irene why don't you decide it, which one I wear. I don't really care." He stated from behind me with a tired voice. I shook my head. "I'm not going to decide what you wear if I myself can't even decide what to wear." I replied still staring at the clothes. 

A long sigh escaped his lips. "Fine I'll take this one with the high collar. I know those large mansions can be a little cold." He stated and I let out a small chuckle. "That's true." I replied smiling softly.

I peered over to the bags which had my clothes in them. Gildarts decided what I would wear, a white and pink ballgown. I absolutely loved the colors of it but I couldn't decide if I should take it or another. 

A moment later we exited the shop making our way back home. "You mind if I walk you home?" He asked in wonder. "I don't mind thank you Gildarts." I replied and took hold of his arm.

Magnolia is one of the best cities to live in. Its beautiful and the Rainbow Sakura tree is number one the attractions for people to come when it blooms. I just hope we could all see it by then. Not to mention the Harvest festival that's soon coming up as well.

"Did you already think of the way there?" He asked and I shook my head in a no. I bit my lip nervously as it was quite far to go. The job request is close to Crocus but we will have to go by carriage as it is right on the other side of the mountain not accessible by train or on foot by a road from the nearest station. "We'll have to go by carriage on a long ride." I stated and Gildarts chuckled. "Poor you, its a shame Wendy can't come with us, you'll just have to endure the ride slouching down on the seat looking like you are about to relief yourself of anything inside." He replied and I frowned as he was right.

Whenever I went to a job request I'd take flying or walking rather then going by carriage or train. My resurrection thankfully took away my curse leaving me with a sane body. I found out I get easily motion sick on the ship back to Fiore from the northern continent. Even Wendy herself now has that issue. 

"Just don't tell anyone in the guild about that, you know how easily I can get flustered." I replied almost hiding my face in shame. 

"Is that Erza and Jellal?" I heard Gildarts exclaim in surprise looking in front of us to a store that had a wedding dress in the window with Erza pointing to it. I rolled my eyes seeing it as I found Erza's drawings just a day ago in her room. At first I thought they were drawings of a small child. "She's thinking for the future and very likely her talk about family will happen with Jellal or they did just now." I replied and smiled happily seeing her.

"You mean she's going to become a mother?" Gildarts asked in shock and I shook my head slowly. "Not yet, she first needs to learn everything about it and especially her nurturing side has to become far more, taking care of a child is a woman's main job in her nature, without it we wouldn't be here. A mans job is to provide everything needed for a woman to safely raise a child and in return she will do everything he asks for, its mainly to tend the home and cooking while he's gone to get food. Jellal will do that as well and you will notice a change in Erza's behavior once she will have one on the way." I explained and Gildarts ohed.

"So you mean she's going to become calm?" He asked and I nodded. "Her brash personality will turn into the one of a true nurturing mother who's only care is her child and she will wait for Jellal each day to come, she will become extremely kind and she will never want to be separated from her child." I replied and Gildarts gave me a confused face. "Right, you never knew how it is to be a parent, you ditched your wife." I replied with a mocking grin.
